The next day.

Ji Chen arrived at Anina’s room, quietly waiting for the countdown to her transformation to end.

Compared to yesterday, the cocoon enveloping Anina had grown even larger, radiating a bright light that bathed the room in a watery blue hue, as if submerged in the sea.

The cocoon, as large as a bed, emitted tangible energy threads that extended outward. Even an ordinary person could sense the tremendous energy contained within, like a bomb ready to explode at any moment.

On the control panel, the countdown gradually decreased, and the energy emanating from the cocoon grew stronger.

Suddenly, the energy within the cocoon dramatically decreased, as if it had been absorbed by something. In just a few minutes, it was completely depleted, leaving only an empty shell.

At that moment, the countdown reached zero, and the cocoon slowly dissipated into light and electricity, revealing a figure.

A smile appeared on Ji Chen’s face as he walked over, but as he saw the appearance of the figure lying on the bed, his smile gradually faded, replaced by confusion.

The girl lying on the bed before him possessed a rather mature look, with a face that fell somewhere between girlhood and womanhood. Her eyebrows exuded a hint of charisma.

Her waist-length silvery-gray hair cascaded gracefully over the bedspread, resembling flowing silk. She wore a revealing outfit with black scales that left little to the imagination, showcasing her mature and well-defined physique. Subtle muscle definition added to her overall sense of strength.

She was a girl who combined a gentle demeanor with a heroic aura.

However, these specifics weren’t the main focus at the moment. Ji Chen’s expression revealed his confusion.

Where did my big Anina go? Where did she disappear to?

Subconsciously, he began checking the information about this “unidentified girl”.

[Dragon Whale Hero: Anina]

???

Is this Anina? Are you kidding me?

Ji Chen widened his eyes and, upon closer inspection, recognized some familiar features on her face.

So, she was indeed Anina, but her transformation had caused significant changes, perhaps as a side effect, maturing her body.

Previously, Anina looked more like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, not yet fully matured. Now, she resembled an eighteen or nineteen-year-old, mature young woman.

Now, she was truly worthy to be called ‘Big Anina’.

At that moment, Anina’s eyelashes twitched slightly, and she slowly opened her eyes, sitting up with a bewildered expression on her face.

“How long did I sleep? It feels so comfortable… Wait, I remember I was in battle before. How did 1 end up in my room…”

Shortly after, she detected something out of the ordinary, bowed her head, and ran her hands over her noticeably shapely curves, pinching them in surprise. “Huh? Why do I suddenly feel so well-endowed? I’m almost as developed as Alice! And my legs feel unusually long, nearly reaching the end of the bed…”

Anina suddenly slapped her palm, looking as if she had a sudden realization. “I know! This must be a dream! How else could I suddenly look like this? Hehe, but this dream feels quite real. Even the lord in the dream is so handsome. Who knows, maybe I can do some other things…”

But suddenly, she saw the “lord” looking complex, as if hesitating to speak.

“Anina.”

Anina looked at Ji Chen in disbelief, her eyes filled with uncertainty. After some thought, she cautiously replied, “Lord?”

“Yes.”

Anina’s body stiffened instantly, her small face flashing with realization.

She lowered her head again, touching her drastically changed body, and murmured, “This is actually real, I wasn’t dreaming…”

Ji Chen watched her acting all silly and couldn’t help but sigh, finally confirming that she was indeed Anina. Such pure silliness couldn’t belong to anyone else.

Ji Chen shook his head and explained the events that had transpired.

“…That’s roughly it. Maybe the transformation made you look like this.”

“I see, that’s why I felt so much stronger.” Anina scratched her head a bit embarrassedly, then suddenly remembered something and asked, “My lord, does this mean that the leader of the Sea Heirs has been completely killed?”

“Yes, it’s shattered into hundreds of pieces, as dead as it can be.”

“Then, have you found a bead from its body?”

As she mentioned it, Ji Chen also recalled that he had indeed found a black bead from the wreckage of the Sea Heirs’ leader.

He searched through his backpack, swiftly located it, and placed it in his hand, closely inspecting it.

[Sea Heirs Heart Core]

[A special treasure produced by the Sea Heirs’ leader, possessing powerful spiritual augmentation abilities.]

Well, this thing is really something. Just from the description, it’s clear that it’s highly suitable for Alice to use.

The Sea Heirs’ leader was quite generous, even in death, offering such a precious item.

Thanks to the Sea Heirs’ leader for this heart core!

What a generous boss!

Feeling rather good, Ji Chen looked at Anina, who was adjusting to her new body.
